This program will scan a portable executable file for parameters like checksum verifications, size of various header fields, improper size of raw data, non-ASCII/empty section names, etc. There are scenarios where the malware developers might reverse the header and make it impossible to reverse using crash debugging tools. It can also detect the packer/compiler used to pack/build the target executable file. it uses Python modules to get the application to work.
